newbie

hey fellas,

I live in Houston and picked up an 02 SE on Saturday (black on black, Bose)and have to say that so far I'm pretty impressed. Had to get an auto since this is primarily my fiancee's car and she hates to row her own....

I've spent a little time searching for parts, and have stumbled across links for Courtesy Nissan, Stillen, etc. but there don't seem to be a lot of parts designated for 02's.

I AM NOT going to mod the hell out of the car, but am interested in a new air filter/intake, springs, a strut bar etc. Since the 02 is more an evolution than a redesign, I'm probably safe, but would like the assurance that it would fit....

Any site suggestions???

You might try the following sites:
http://www.stillen.com
http://www.avalonracing.net
http://www.cattman.com


Here's a list of parts for the 2000/2001, most/some of which will still fit the 2002:

Welcome aboard! Mods are bad. Make sure you don't get influenced by guys like UMD_MaxSE.

I have an "exhaust leak" like kev does, especially everytime I let go of the gas.

Kev, yes I do, make me an offer I can't refuse. New Wiring Harness, and Apexi sent me a "badge" *shake head*
You can't fix that stupid leak either?

Check your PM on the other forum for offer.

2.90"? Sound like a pretty small hole in your exhaust.

Here’s my list of cheap mods you can try:

Let one psi out of all your tires.
Change your FM2 radio station settings to something new.
Adjust your driver seat position one inch back.
Raise the center console.
Take your sunglasses out of the holder and put them in the glove compartment.
Set your headlights to auto.
Put a new paper cup in the cup holder.
Dim your instrument lights one-quarter turn.

Otherwise, don’t let these mod fanatics talk you into big money and/or illegal alterations that return questionable advantages.
